[Intro: 2Baba, Ehi Idibia]
Play the other one
Oh woah woah woah woah woah
Oh woah woah woah woah woah
No beat me
I wanna be free
Free like a bird
Oh I thought you heard
Say I no like yawa, I like peace instead
[Chorus: 2Baba]
I wanna be free, free, free
Free like a bird
Oh I thought you heard
Say I no like yawa, I like peace instead
I thought you knew, knew, knew
That this man is true
So when you see me passing through
Let me be because I don pay my dues
Hey
[Verse 1: 2Baba]
Abi you no know say I dey here
Look me as your mallam, plus a soldier and a player in this industry
Abi you no dey fear
Haba mana walahi, my guy, you no dey like to hear
When you look up in the sky
And you see me dey fly
You dey try to shoot my blockus, maka why?
Ask me nonsense, me no dey reply
We no dey die, guy, we dey only multiply
Pick up the pieces of your life
Why you dey look me when there’s a lurk in your eye?
That's the difference between me and you mama please don’t look what other people do
Try to stop me, I go zoom zoom zoom
You dey learn how to fly, I’ve been to the moon
Bad-mouth me, back-bite me
Try to provoke me but I no send you
I'ma do me, I'ma let you do you
There’s a piece of advice for you
Don’t try to walk upon my shoes
Don’t try because e no go size you
[Chorus: 2Baba]
I wanna be free, free, free
Free like a bird (free like a bird)
Oh I thought you heard
Say I no like yawa, I like peace instead
I thought you knew, knew, knew
That this man is true
So when you see me passing through
Let me be because I don pay my dues
Hey
[Verse 2: 2Baba]
When I walk into town
And I’m strolling around
All the bad belle people dem go start to dey frown
Dem dey do like say dem no know say dem no fit pull me down
Dem no know say say na only God na him dey keep me profound
Dem dey look Uche face
Na only me dem dey trace
Dem dey do like say na dem holy pass for the place
Dem dey scatter my gaze
Dem just dey block my ways
But no matter what they do, we just don't care about them
Dem take the peace out of me
Dem no want let me to be
Dem they always try to take the sugar out of my tea
'Cause I'm the motherfucking man, I got my life to live
See, no matter what I do it’s my prerogative
So don’t push me 'cause I’m close to the edge
I’m trying not to lose my head
[Chorus: 2Baba]
I wanna be free, free, free
Free like a bird (free like a bird)
Oh I thought you heard
Say I no like yawa, I like peace instead
I thought you knew, knew, knew
That this man is true
So when you see me passing through
Let me be because I don pay my dues
Hey
[Outro]
When you look up in the sky and you see me dey fly
You dey try to shoot my blockus, maka why?
Ask me nonsense, me no dey reply
We no dey die, guy, we dey only multiply
Pick up the pieces of your life
Why you dey look me when there’s a lurk in your eye
That's the difference between me and you mama, please don’t look what other people do
Try to stop me, I go zoom zoom zoom
You dey learn how to fly, I’ve been to the moon
Bad-mouth me, back-bite me
Try to provoke me but I no send you
I'ma do me, I'ma let you do you
There’s a piece of advice for you
Don’t try to walk upon my shoes
Don’t try because e no go size you
Just let me be
